Hi Joy and Denise

Great to see this message thread! I'm also doing the Italy trip and flying from Glasgow the day before. Still to book hotel, but think connecting flights are booked. Will check tomorrow. I may join you for that drink!

Hi Joy and Redanne.

At the moment my connecting flight is due in at Gatwick at 12.45 on the 22nd. When you both know your flight times let me know. As you can see, Joy & I are booked in at the Crowne Plaza. See you there!!?

I've been really busy at work, so not had time to sort out hotel. Last word I had on flights was leaving Glw at 1340, into Gatwick 1505.

Hi folks. My name's Emah amd I'm also booked on the Italy trip on 23rd sept. It will be my first trip with JY so I'm beginning to have butterflies in my stomach yet excited at the same time! I don't know what to expect but hopefully we'll all have a wonderful time. I'm travelling down to Gatwick from Nottingham the day before and have booked into the Crowne Plaza. It would be nice to hear from you guys and look forward to meeting you all.

Cheers, Emah.

Hi Emah,

We could be having a party at the Crowne Plaza!!?? Its nice to know that everyone seems to be going through the same feelings. To start with I was more excited that anxious but the closer it gets the more nervous I feel. I'm sure we'll all be fine & I look forward to meeting you. Denise.

Hi all-Just to let you know, I'm now booked to arrive on the 1340/1505 from Glasgow and, yes, staying at the Crowne Plaza. I'm meeting a friend who lives locally for dinner, but will definitely make time for that drink at some point during the day!

Hi all

hey looks like we're going to have a party then !!! Think we should meet up in the Cube Lounge in the hotel. Will post a note later and suggest a time.

Redanne - hope to met up with you at Glasgow Airport before the flight to London. Will have to tell you what I'm wearing so that you'll know me ! Maybe more than a red carnation and a copy of the Times under my arm !!!

I believe there are 30 going on our trip. 24 of us girls and 6 lucky men ! lol !!

Hi Joy,

Great idea for the meeting place will wait to see what sort of time you suggest.

Joy/Denise/Emah - this is sounding better by the minute! Looking forward to meeting you all at the Crowne Plaza or before. Joy - yes, suggest something and, if I'm sufficiently organised (!), I'll be there.

Documentation arrived.....not long now, yipeee !!

Arrive Gatwick around 3pm so suggest we meet up in the Cube Lounge 6.30/7pm if that sounds ok.

Redanne - think I'll be wearing jeans and tan jacket so hope you see me ! There's a Caffe Nero after you go through security so hope you'll see me !!!

Looking forward to meeting you all !
